Maisie Peters - Spring Clean lyrics
[Maisie Peters - Spring Clean lyrics]
If anyone asks me, oh, I’m doing fine
I’ve been dusting the rooms where
Your stuff used to lie
I would call it a spring clean
But nothing has grown since you left
If anyone asks me, oh I’m doing fine
I’ve been using the time to
Read books you don’t like
Never knew how to read you
Guess now I don’t even have to try
And my friends phone me up
Say, "How you holding up?"
And I say to them, "I’m holding strong"
And they will sigh with relief
While I stare at my feet
Holding back how I’m barely holding on
'Cause all I know now is that
I don’t know how you
Whitewashed me so quickly and you don’t
Think of me at all
How does that feel, tell me
How does that feel? Yeah, I’m keeping busy
Oh, I’m learning Spanish
'Cause talking to yourself seems more
Sane in a language that no one else speaks
They can’t hear all the tears in my words
And my friends phone me up
Say, "How you holding up?"
And I say to them, "I’m holding strong"
And they will sigh with relief
While I stare at my feet
Holding back how I’m barely holding on
'Cause all I know now is that
I don’t know how you
Whitewashed me so quickly and you don’t
Think of me at all
How does that feel, tell me
How does that feel?
Nothing makes sense anymore
You went back to the south
I’d choose you every lifetime
Loving you inside and out
But I never chose feeling lonely when
I heard the rain or
Your name or the song that
You said was for me oh, was it really?
Nobody chooses to lose him when all that
You knew was how to be his
And my friends phone me up
Say, "How you holding up?"
And I say to them, "I’m holding strong"
And they will sigh with relief
While I stare at my feet
Holding back how I’m barely holding on
'Cause all I know now is that
I don’t know how you
Whitewashed me so quickly and you don’t
Think of me at all
How does that feel, tell me
How does that feel?
I’ve been dusting the rooms where
Your stuff used to lie
I would call it a spring clean
But nothing has grown since you left
If anyone asks me, oh I’m doing fine
I’ve been using the time to
Read books you don’t like
Never knew how to read you
Guess now I don’t even have to try
And my friends phone me up
Say, "How you holding up?"
And I say to them, "I’m holding strong"
And they will sigh with relief
While I stare at my feet
Holding back how I’m barely holding on
'Cause all I know now is that
I don’t know how you
Whitewashed me so quickly and you don’t
Think of me at all
How does that feel, tell me
How does that feel? Yeah, I’m keeping busy
Oh, I’m learning Spanish
'Cause talking to yourself seems more
Sane in a language that no one else speaks
They can’t hear all the tears in my words
And my friends phone me up
Say, "How you holding up?"
And I say to them, "I’m holding strong"
And they will sigh with relief
While I stare at my feet
Holding back how I’m barely holding on
'Cause all I know now is that

Whitewashed me so quickly and you don’t
